#64 You Too Can Build an Artificial Pancreas at Home: part 2 with Scott Leibrand

Scott Leibrand loves Dana Lewis (episode 63) and together they built Dana her very own artificial pancreas. This episode isn't a true part 2, it is more a different perspective on the story of OpenAPS then the one you heard in ep 63. In the end, I got the feeling that if this guy loves you... there is nothing that he wouldn't do. In episode 63 of the JBP I talk with Dana and get her perspective on their journey.
